Pretreatment Program

The Warwick Sewer Authority’s Industrial Pretreatment Program was established in 1983 (Public Laws of 1983, Chapter 13) as required by the Federal Government through the provisions of the General Pretreatment Regulations (40 CFR Part 403).  The Program oversees the issuance of wastewater discharge permits for of all Warwick based industrial and commercial facilities discharging wastewater, either directly or indirectly (via septage hauler), to the Warwick Sewer System.  User compliance with the conditions as set forth in their permit ultimately protects our sewer collection system, treatment facility, the Pawtuxet River and Narragansett Bay.
